CU Beer Weekend; July 23 Champaign County Fair

The Champaign County Fair starts today.

Tonight is the Demolition Derby
Sunday is the Prairieland Monster Truck Nationals
Tuesday is Harness Racing
Wednesday is AMA Motorcycle Races
Thursday is the Rodeo
Next Friday is another Demolition Derby
Next Saturday is the Tractor Pull

*edit* I've been told there is a beer tent. I wouldn't get your hopes up to find anything great.

I'm pretty sure that the fair is alcohol free *i'm wrong*. But that doesn't mean you can't have a couple before you go, and can't have some after you leave.

For the Demolition Derby, have a Goose Island Demolition. For the Monster Truck Nationals go with a Rock Art Brewery Vermonster (although you won't find Rock Art around here). For Harness racing, nothings better than a Kentucky Horse Piss. AMA Motorcycle Races call for an Schlafly APA. For the rodeo, get a Schlitz Red Bull Malt Liquor. For the tractor pull, get a Southern Tier Big Red.

What beer goes well with fair food? If you are at a Renaissance fair, then drink mead. But, since this is a deep fried fair, IPA's will probably do the best to cut the grease. If you are going to have foot long hotdogs, then a light German beer would be good. Also, it's going to be hot out there, so a shandy might be something to cut the heat.

If you go, be safe, have fun, watch your wallet.
